The Picasso Museum was absolutely fantastic and a must-see for art enthusiasts. The collection is impressive, showcasing Picasso’s journey as an artist. We visited in the morning when it was quite peaceful, allowing us to take our time and truly appreciate the artworks. We spent around three hours there, and it was definitely worth it. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Barcelona!

A really lovely experience. The building features beautiful architecture. The exhibition showcased a great range of artwork from various periods of Picasso’s life, including paintings, sketches, photos, sculptures, and ceramics. We also viewed a temporary exhibition featuring Catalan artists in Paris, which was very interesting and presented some stunning pieces. Although we didn't use them, audio guides and tours were available. There’s also a shop and a restaurant with a lovely atmosphere. In both exhibitions, there were areas where you could sit and read a variety of books about Picasso and other artists. The staff were very helpful and friendly. I would definitely recommend this museum!
While I'm glad I visited, I’m not sure it was worth it. I would have regretted not going, but the museum felt a bit underwhelming aside from a few key pieces by Picasso. I appreciate the explanation of women in his artwork, yet I feel the curation could be improved to better highlight Picasso’s work. As someone with an art background, I might be a bit critical, but I believe the space could be more thoughtfully arranged. Overall, it was a good experience, but there’s room for improvement, particularly in signage.

If you love art, or even if you don’t, you must visit this museum. It offers a fascinating insight into Picasso’s artistic journey. I recommend going in the morning and taking your time with the collection. I spent about 4 hours and it was amazing. The space may be small, but the collection is rich and interesting, and you’ll become engrossed in it. Additionally, it displays not just paintings but pottery from his later years. Each section shares stories about how Picasso’s life influenced his art. The building is picturesque, and the entire experience was truly enriching. Highly recommend it! Thumbs up!
I pre-booked a slot on their official website and visited on the first Sunday of the month when entry is free. Fortunately, I had no wait time due to my ticket reservation, while others had to stand in line for quite some distance. The museum provides a glimpse into Picasso's life and work. Although I'm not an art enthusiast, I decided to visit. However, I felt my visit wasn’t particularly worthwhile.
